Chapter 718

This was exactly the moment Jack had been waiting for.

With lightning speed, he struck an iron fist and landed a brutal slap across Fabian's face. It felt like getting hit with a sledgehammer. Fabian's head rang like it was about to explode.

Just as Fabian was about to stumble backward, Jack grabbed his arm and twisted it around, snapping it nearly 270 degrees.

With Fabian defeated, Jack got to work cleaning up the scene.

One of his guys, looking a little uneasy, asked, "Are you sure we're not going to have a problem after this? Sebastian's not exactly the kind of guy you wanna piss off."

Jack gave a faint smile and replied, "Sebastian? He's got bigger problems to worry about."

Things stayed relatively calm for a while after that.

Everything had started with Leslie, and once the Cline Corporation collapsed, the Cline family went down with it.

Someone had also finally gotten dirt on Sebastian. These days, he was laying low, constantly on the run, and for now, keeping his distance from Jack.

For the first time in a long while, Jack could finally lie in bed comfortably and relax. No mind games, no power plays.

On Sunday morning, Feena gave Jack a call and asked to meet up.

When Jack saw her, she was riding a pink bicycle, her long hair tied back in a ponytail, wearing a white dress with a hint of lace.

Even with sunglasses on, Feena's natural elegance was impossible to hide. Since she'd started dating Jack, she seemed to display more mature femininity. She'd also gotten better at dressing up, always radiating a captivating charm.

While Feena was standing at the building floor waiting for Jack, she became the center of attention on the street. But there was always a trace of pride on her face, a cool detachment that kept people at a distance. That all disappeared the moment Jack showed up.

In an instant, the icy expression melted into a radiant and warm smile. Only someone truly in love could light up like that.

She threw her arms around Jack and asked gently, "What took you so long?"

"I came down the second you called," Jack said with a shrug. He'd literally been slipping on his shoes while walking out the door. How much faster did she expect?

Feena's cheeks flushed with a soft pink. Truth was, Jack had come down the moment she called, but somehow, it had still felt like she'd been waiting forever.

After all, even a day apart could feel like an eternity when you missed someone. Feena held Jack's hand as they headed to the campus cafeteria for lunch, then insisted he spend the afternoon shopping with her.

Feena was a thoughtful woman. She'd noticed Jack had been rotating through the same few outfits lately-some of which, she knew, had been picked out by Bella.

With Bella out of the picture, it only felt right for Feena to dress Jack in her own style.

After lunch, she grabbed Jack's hand, hopped on her bike, and the two rode off toward a shopping mall just outside university.

The spring breeze played with Feena's ponytail as she sat on the back seat, arms wrapped tightly around Jack, feeling completely at peace.

Once they arrived at the mall, Feena went all in and bought Jack five or six new outfits in one go.

No matter how easygoing a woman might seem, seeing her boyfriend still wearing clothes picked out by his ex would rub anyone the wrong way.

Jack had no choice but to try everything on then and there in the fitting room. When he stepped out in a fresh set of clothes, he looked more radiant than ever.

Feena's eyes lit up. Even though she'd seen Jack a long time, she still couldn't stop the rush of warmth to her cheeks or the quickening of her heartbeat.

At that moment, Jack wasn't just handsome-he was leagues above all the so- called campus heartthrobs back at school.

After hours of walking around, they finally sat down on a bench in the mall to catch their breath.

Feena leaned her head gently against Jack's chest, gazing up at his face. Then, Feena hugged Jack tightly like she was afraid that he might vanish if she let go.
